KILL SCRIPT is back at home on NIGHTMODE with the brooding new EP ‘EXTRACTION.’ The two-track offering marks his sixth release with the label and builds upon the dystopian techno style he’s been cultivating. “LIGHT CHASER” is an adrenaline-spiking peak-time techno anthem while “THE FUTURE” explores a hypnotic groove that’s shrouded in dark energy and riddled with thrilling twists and turns.
“LIGHT CHASER” is peak-time techno at its finest. Robotic vocals and pulsing dark synths inject a distinctly cinematic sci-fi undercurrent. Thudding kicks and pummeling drums drive the track forward with force. The intensity is enhanced with climbing arps and ringing alarm synths that create a sense of urgency. As the robotic voice drifts back in, the track erupts with acid lashes and pounding percussion, all the while, continuing to escalate the intensity. It exudes a sense of divine guidance pulling listeners who strayed into the darkness back onto their intended path. Hard-hitting, ever-climbing, and heart-pumping, “LIGHT CHASER” is a late-night anthem destined to ignite dancefloors.
KILL SCRIPT elaborates on the strength of the theme seen on the lead cut, saying, “The Light Chaser. The beam of light that guides everyone and everything through life. Sometimes, it feels like it’s straying from the intended path but there’s a beauty in that. I’ve felt like I’ve strayed from the path a bunch in my life, but have always found my way back to where I need to be.”
Staying true to the sonic direction of the project while exploring new ground comes “THE FUTURE.” The groove-laden techno cut is all about letting go, which is embodied with the playful lyrics commanding the listener to embrace what lies ahead. Lively yet powerful percussion lays the foundation while shadowy textures and neurotic melodies whisk you into the future. Pounding yet pensive, “THE FUTURE” is ripe with uncertainty, excitement, beauty, and darkness—perfect for scoring a sci-fi chase scene or late-night warehouse raves.
Opening up about the inspiration for the B-side, KILL SCRIPTS, says, “The Future. To not be lost in the past and focus on the future. A lot of people, including myself, have big dreams and things we want to accomplish but have some skeletons in the closet and let those feelings roadblock the possibility of the future. You can’t stay stuck in the past, because then you won’t be able to experience what is to come.”
‘EXTRACTION’ is KILL SCRIPT at his best, delivering peak-time techno with the sci-fi-inspired cinematic edge that only he can.
“‘Lightchaser’ and ‘The Future’ have really been two of the most epic tracks I play at my shows. Getting to see the crowd’s reaction at a massive stage like circuitGROUNDS at EDC Las Vegas has been really special and truly a moment I’ll carry with me for the rest of my life. With the continued support of NIGHTMODE, I am so stoked to tell more of the cinematic storyline of KILL SCRIPT and release ‘EXTRACTION’ into the world.”– KILL SCRIPT
